Parkland

In contrast to yesterday's misty walk, this morning's ramble around Shipley Park was completed in glorious sunshine with a bright blue sky above us. Several horse-riders were also enjoying the day.

As we approached Osborne's Pond, we were greeted by the sound of ducks quacking loudly and Greylag geese honking.

The autumn colour has passed its best in most places now, but in a few spots, there is still plenty to be enjoyed.  This delightful tree was to found on Shipley Hill...
